title: Cytogenetic analyses of three papillary carcinomas and a follicular adenoma of the thyroid.
abstract: Cytogenetic data of three papillary carcinomas and a follicular adenoma using direct preparations or cell cultures or both after 7 to 60 days in vitro are presented. Although karyotype of the follicular adenoma proved completely normal, in each of the three papillary carcinomas a modal chromosome number in the diploid range and a deleted 11q were observed. In case 1 the del(11)(q23) was associated with rearrangement of chromosome 1 and other marker chromosomes. Our results suggest that 11q deletion may be specific for papillary carcinoma of the thyroid.
